Own SBX Loader

[Stevenson]

Hello, I´ve write my own .sbx laoder.

Every thing works fine without the terrain.

I can´t see any way to set the Meterspertile from a

terrain.

 

i hope some one can help me.

 

Greetings, Steven

It is set when you call CreateTerrain, you pass a meterspertile parameter.

[Stevenson]

i thought this parameter is for the resolution.

I could be wrong

You will also get blocked by the vegetation portion, since the functions/methods are not exposed/documented. If you've figured this out a lot of us would love to know how.

I cant see any way to set the meter per tileoption...

 

Does nobody habe an answer?

it looks like its SetLayerScale in bmx and SetTerrainTextureScale in lua if I had to guess... and it looks like SetLayerScale may be removed shortly if what the wiki says is true... but currently bmax in 2.3 still recognizes it.

[Masterxilo]

no, it's just:

ScaleEntity(terrain, Vec3(meterspertile, 1, meterspertile);

(where terrain is your terrain entity)

 

When the terrain is created it is scaled to 1 meter per tile.

Thanks a lot, this works now:

 

ScaleEntity(terrain, Vec3(meterspertile, altitude, meterspertile);

RotateEntity(terrain,Vec3(90,0,0))

 

Will that work?

[Josh]

Nope. The terrain shader doesn't use a matrix multiplication, for better speed.

Darn, would have been interesting to be able to rotate terrains, or possibly have more than one.
